The ILL scale Model

The scale model of the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) is usually located in its entrance hall but is sometimes shown in exhibitions or congres. It shows the ILL buildings and neutron facility with the instrument set as anticipated in 2013.

The model in short

: A view of the interface

The scale model was built in 1997 by T. Heidemann and D. Laboisse. It was then computarized by A. Filhol in 1998 and then evolved through successive updates.

The current version (v9, 2010) is a major upgrade of both the hardware (Theo Schmitz) and software (briq.com).

The current contents of the software is about 500 pages with:

> 900 images and icons (jpeg or png files)
> 50 movies (mp4 files),
85 Flash animations,
> 20 animated GIFs

This material is either original or comes from other pages of the ILL web site.
